| The squad changes. Like they all do.
Forwards are signed, forwards are released.
Players like Eastwood come in.
But they also leave (Ward/Thackary/Adamson/Poching etc).
But what has been the constant throughout these changes??
Bailey has still played.
Yes he's had better seasons than others, and played more games than other years. But the coaching staff pick him for the recent big game winners medals. He is regarded by me and by the coaching staff.
He's been with us nearly 10 years, listening to some on here you would think that.

I suppose we can revisit at the end of the year and check out his appearance record and lucrative new contract, I may well be proved wrong.'"
Between you and me mate, there's a few k-nobs in 'my own'.
As for his contract - I have minimal interest in that. What he earns is what he earns. I wouldn't put my contract up here for discussion so I will offer Mr Bailey the same respect.

Appreciate all that and would remind you that I was offering an opinion as to whether Bailey will be part of a fully fit Leeds team in 2010 and whether he will get a new contract.
Not whether he is better than Wayne McDonald or Jamie Thackray or how long he has been with the club.

Sorry for extending the subject matter and offering intelligent, logical examples to back up MY point of view.
Silly me.

All very logical, but we seem to be arguing different points.
I questioned whether Bailey would be first choice at Leeds in 2010, you seem to be talking about his contribution within past and different squads (after a slight detour raging on about a James Graham tackle, Bryn Hargreaves and Paul Clough, and Maurie Fa'asavalu's nose - which I wouldn't necessarily file under "intelligent" but everyone has their own standards).

We've been here before.
Season after season - 'will he get a game??' 'will he get a new contract?'
blah blah blah
It's boring frankly.
What my POV is looking back at was has occured before. Facts. These highlight that he has this question asked and yet he still picks up that GF ring.
Yes Eastwood is new. It's just a different name on the same variable.
Raging on??? Really?? You can't have seen 'r lass 'going 'off on one' as that is rage in the puriest - filthiest - form.

| Quote: pmh "Oh I do like a good colloquialism, I shall endevour to shoehorn that into every conversation that I have with Ms. pmh this weekend.
As to Bailey, as an opposition fan he appears to me to offer something different to your other forwards. Good at bringing the ball out as he more often than not gets a quick ptb, mobile, niggly and hits well and often in defence.
All things a prop's supposed to have and do, the only thing I'd be tempted to change would be to start with him, he seems a lean fit lad that could get through more work than his minutes on the pitch allow and therefore use Kylie for impact.'"
not sure how much impact kylie would have as an impact sub...
think he's probably best on @ the start

| Quote: FearTheVee "I see your point re: Bailey's longevity in the past, but it isn't just a different name is it? It's a young Kiwi international. With two other pack signings made in the shape of Amor and Bibb, and another year under the belt for Burgess.
Given all that, I would say it's reasonable to ask whether he'll be in the first choice 17. Some would say it's far more reasonable an assertion than the OP's . . . .
Lucky you
Yeah the young Kiwi should keep them all on their toes (as it should!!)
But with JP and Kylie knocking on we need to keep the pack fresh and current.
And as for the Burgess remark, this was said when Scruton was here. Like I said I've been here before many times and Bailey still stands!!
As for 'lucky me' - oh I know that!!!

You reckon she'd let me have a go?
I wouldn't take long and she'd barely notice?
I'd buy you a pint.
